hey fellas, i knew there was a post on this just the other day, but i cant find it at all, and i have looked through a couple, one of which is one i sold a roll of it to some one else about a year and a half ago cause at the time i didnt have a fourby and now i need some.

and i need it badly, i need it tomorrow morning asap. i am booked into vicroads at 1140 for re registration, i have my roadworthy, but i dont want to leave it to chance that they dont pick on my 75 having the tyres out of the gaurds, i completely forgot and hadnt seen it since they were put on untill tonight, which was to late to get some.

where around the greensborough area would you source it, i know clark rubber has some and they will be where i go first, i dont care if i am paying to much as i just want it on, and i need some back up places, and have been warned that clark sell it at like 19 $ a meter, which i belive i will only need 3, but will purchase 4 just to be safe!!!!

cheers fellas

clark is 9.95/metre for the narrow stuff - i bought some 2 days ago - bolts underneath and about 40 - 50mm wide, the wider stuff which looked like about 60mm was 15/metre
